Sounds like North was doing his best Hitler in the Bunker routine.

"The 'Monsters' brand, I think, is going to be here to stay for a while," North said. "We've got things to do, Dan and me and Jen. ... Doing a three-hour show, 15 hours a week, has opened up other opportunities for us that we'll probably be talking about down the line, but today isn't the day."

Well Mac told me to to tell you to go FUCK YOURSELF!!! ..So now it's been said .. .

I'm gonna do my best to mix in a summary with direct quotes, because this was some entertaining stuff!!! Sorry if the quotes don't make sense, I just wrote exactly what Mike said.

- "Would we have liked to have stayed? Yea, but it's not my money. When you lose money and you are used to hitting the bottom line, the days of TV shows being able to go on after 1, 2 years while losing money are over. This show is worth saving."

- "I'm not the guy who has to handle the bottom Line." At the end of the day, it's strictly due to economics. The reason they did 3 hours was so Mike could bring in enough advertisers to make the show viable.

- "We brought in SIX FIGURES A MONTH (???)." Thanks Phil Modella (sp?). Phil feels that they could have done better, but without him, "They couldn't have made $1 Million in 8 months."

- Mike says Phil was stunned that Mike could bring in sales that basically beat Comcast 2-1, but Mike admits he didn't have 5 things to sell.

- If Phil was just able to sell his show, it "would have been closer and they would have gotten the money they deserve."

- "
- " I told them I would have another title sponsor, after the other guy went south, ok. I was getting calls... ' do you have your title sponsor, do you have your title sponsor.' I said, not yet. I know this, if I didn't get Chicago Area Lecit, the papers would have been filled with 'North Fails,' 'North falls on Face,' 'North doesn't get it done.' Which is foreign to me to begin with. Here's what I do know... we got Chicago Area Lecit and know what was written about it? That we came back with 2 title sponsors... and we had a title sponsor that left, and in a recession we came up with another title sponsor. My advice to anybody that sells for a living: If you use the recession as an excuse, you're lazy. Cuz we started the show in a recession, and we are very very healthy, and our brand is healthy... and you know what? You always gotta take care of the moneymen."

- - Thanks all the sponsors. In the recession, "we we're making nothing but money."
- They all sat down and asked if they could knock it down to an hour or hour and a half. Mike couldn't do that since he had so much money in the other sponsors. Asks how many shows there are on 3 hours a day, 5 days a week. Plus the encore. They are up for an emmy, "we only entered one" and it's for the entire show, not any individual.

- End of the day, you can't sell a Royce in a Chevy show room.

LOL! That would be priceless if someone made that hitler bunker routine with North subtitles.

I still think bigfan's assessment will end up being true.

I simply cannot understand the extent of the loyalty towards Jiggles.

The victims are the American People and the Republic itself.
